Definitely classy, mate. Not to mention one of the most original DevIDs I've ever seen.

I'm actually surprised that you haven't. Would look great just above your journal on the main page.

Great concept, well executed! I love the implied atmosphere as well... just a few slightly blurred silhouettes and some soft lighting is all it took to create the rich feel of a coffee house environment

Cheers mate.
Ugh, sometimes though I wonder if all this talk about atmosphere isn't just a cop out on my behalf to avoid doing really detailed background Either way, I'm glad the effect worked.

Definitely jealous of your rad photoshop painting skills. I'm currently at uni at 9:30pm losing my battle with InDesign, whee!

Ugh... I have decided I loathe InDesign. For some reason it didn't want to set my text straight... then it didn't want to export as a .pdf due to something about copyright issues on the typeface I used. It's a bloody system font for crying out loud.
Still, I will admit it's much easier for doing long blocks of text than Photoshop is.
Cheers mate. How goes I&T for you anyway?

I decided that pretty much the instant I started using it. It keeps screwing up my images & just being a general bastard.
I&T goes okay, the icon & poster are all done, just trying to figure out something more interesting for the brochure. I'm actually in class right now, I bet you're having more fun in the States

Not in the States just yet, fly out tomorrow morning... all my stuff's submitted though and I needed tonight to get organised... hence why I'm not there
Yeah, images I've not had too much trouble with... after I found out the massive pixelation was just how InDesign operates. Text though was driving me balmy and I've still no idea how to warp it in that program.
Good luck with it.

Heh, oops. And yeah, the insane level of pixelation threw me for a while =/ I tried and failed to warp text, too. Mostly I'm struggling with what to actually write (yeah, I still haven't finished. Sigh.)
Anyhow, enjoy

Will tell you in a month or so
Submitted on the weekend, but previous experience says it'll take awhile longer for the marks to be made available.

It was originally a Soviet star, but then I moved the glasses from resting on the table to sitting up

I wouldn't mind getting my coffee in a cup with that as its pattern.
(although it begs the question of what the rest of the cup would read. Friends, family, and charitable causes maybe? The *other* important stuff... ^~)

Why am I not surprised?
I didn't think it could possibly be any relation to the 'mod' that I was thinking of.
